ELEVENTH EPISODE
The Saving of Dan O'Mara
Young Peggy O'Mara was troubled
In mind. She had become suspicious
of her own father. On more than one
occasion ot late that debt-harried
toller from the Applewaltbo works
bad been visited by a stranger wbo Im
pressed the sophisticated young Peggy
(as anything but attractive And an
honest man, Peggy argued with her
elf, finds no need for stealing up to.
a. house at nieht and clusetlne himself
tw,lth its owner behind the locked door that one-armed man had me, machine
lot a cellar workroom. So the spindle- work taken away from met"
legged daughter of Dan O'Mara, watch-' ' . "But you'll have more'n your ma
ling for her chance, decided to Investl- chlnff taken away from you, pop.
Wate. 1 You'll be queered with the company,
f But the girl's chances for Invest!- for tamperln with stock, and. then th
nuns u get wise ana seno yoa up tne
river for smuglin'!" t
"I've thought that out, me gerll. I've
no love for goln' against the law, at
me time o' life, out 1 guess we've got
to take chances. We've got to, or go
under for good and alll for I'm think.
In' your poor mother was right when
she said there was no crime so black
as the crime o' beln' poor!"
i "But they'd promised to raise your
pay, over to the dye works!" she re
minded him.
' ."Instead o' which they, took off me
through thV house,' with a parcel under
his arm, and then once more made her
way down to her father's workroom.
The door, this time, was unlocked. Bo
she entered noiselessly t id crept over
to where Dan O'Mara sat staring at
the wall with unseeing eyes.
"Pop, what're you thlnkin' aboutt"
suddenly asked a ' tremulous voice
close to his shoulder.
He swung about like a shot
' "What should I be thlnkin' about r
he demanded.
, "You're thlnkin' about that man who
was down here ten minutes ago," was
the girl's answer,
1 "What man?" equivocated the cul
prit. ,
. "Chinatown Charlie." ' " '
' "And how'd you know he's called
Chinatown Charlie?" demanded rebellious-eyed
Dan O'Mara.
. "I know more'n that, pop," said the
girl, with a gulp. "I know that city
crook's rppln' you in for work I never
thought you'd do!"
"Work? What work?"
t 'There's a bunch of opium smug
glers goi wise to the fact that the dye
works is biinki?' In tons of that Kal
sow wood from Chins. And certain o'
them blocks Is goln' to come In hol
low with secret marks, and you're
goln' to dig the opium out o' them and
hide It here until that bop runner for
Chinatown Charlie comes and carries
:lt away In a laundry bag!"
!' "Ain't your mother got to have med
icine?" demanded her father. ''Ain't
'we behind in our rent? And ain't the
company docked me ten a month since
Cation were limited, for Peggy was a
bard-driven young housekeeper, with a
bedridden mother to look after as best
Ishe could. Late one night, however,
when Dan O'Mara had led, his myste
riouB visitor Into his cellar workroom
tend locked the door behind him, the
girl slipped off her broken-toed shoes
jand stole silently down to that under
ground chamber of mystery.
There, with her ear to the keyhole,
Ishe overheard enough to confirm her
darkest suspicions. She waited until
macninerana gave It to that one-armed
snitch who claimed I'd been workln'
against the company by tryta to ta
lent a chemical color that'd soon be
sandtaMhelr old logwood plant f the
scrap heap!" :
Silent as Peggy O'Mara remained
on the subject of her discovery, she
brooded long and darkly on this heav
ier cloud that bung over her home and
her father's good name. It haunted
her thought as she worked. It filled
her blind young heart with a spirit ol
revolt It converted her into a dl
mlnuttve yet lowering-browed Ishmael
Ite. She bated the owner ot the works,
she told herself as she carried her fa
ther's dinner pall to the factory the
next day, and she hated the bard
voiced foreman ot the shaft room. She
turned to stare belligerently towards
Anson Applewalthe, the Immaculate
son of the factory owner himself, as
he ushered into the room of whirring
shafts and flying belts a small group
of visitors. . " v . ;
Yet the Ishmael-Uke young face soft
ened a little as she looked at one mem
ber of that approaching group. For
one fair-haired girl ot about twenty,
dressed in black, whom young Apple
walthe piloted about amid the roaring
and clattering machinery and repeat
edly addressed as "Miss Golden," was
beautiful enough to bring a wayward
pang of envy to the breast ot Peggy
O'Mara. As she watched her eyes sud
denly widened In alarm. For Margery

teued themselves in the fabrlo ot the
garment edge, carrying It back be
tween the' jaws of the twin cogs that
quickly closed on the cloth and
seemed to reach out for more.
At the same moment that Margery
Golden turned about to determine the
meaning of this sudden tug at her
clothing, the alert-eyed Peggy O'Mara
made an apparently maniacal spring
for that astounded young woman's
throat . .
- With a quick jerk of her thin young
fingers Peggy tore the cape free where
It was already straining against the
white column of its wearer's throat
. It was not until Margery Golden
saw the Iron teeth of the cog wheels
swallowing up the last of her vanish
ing cape that any inkling of her dan
ger came home to her.
Margery Golden stepped back and
leaned against a guard rail. Then, aft
er looking studiously at the slattern
and slightly abashed figure of her de
liverer, she opened her pocketbook
and from It took out two or three neat
ly folded bank notes. These she held
smilingly out to the girl with the
brokon-toed shoes. t
But a quick flash spread over the
usually colorless cheeks of Miss Peggy
O'Mara as she backed determinedly
awax-tomthe bills.
